Hair/glam metal came from a variety of sources;

Glam rock in the 70s; T. Rex, The Sweet, The New York Dolls etc.

Metal bands with a definite image from the 70s; Kiss, Alice Cooper etc.

Metal bands that ditched the Sabbath sludge; Van Halen, Def Leppard etc.

Kiss were arguably the first, possibly Van Halen or even Def Leppard. However most people would agree that Motley Crue were one of the first to bring everything together.
